One and a half Jazz apples – a painting a day

I like these apples they are really really tasty and there are 50% extra free in the bag I bought. It’s a new variety and it will grow in the UK.

Today I was a total sucker for offers and chocolate as granny sent money for forgotten eggs .Almost all the eggs had gone with the exception of some lovely Barbie eggs which nearly made teenage sons sick on the spot. They happily substituted various exotic bars: chocolate with ginger, cherries, pieces of raspberry and Belgian truffles in a bar. Did we get this sort of delight when we were young? A bar of Bournville was the height of sophistication, in Easter eggs if we were lucky we got Black Magic the chocolate was really nice on those then, I think they may have downgraded it since. The egg snapped when you hit it in a very satisfying way.

The best bit was one boy went over budget so had to give up a bar…I thoughtfully relieved him of the plain chocolate and raspberry ( Fairtrade no less), the boys got taste… in chocolate at least.
